406TPI, that is about the least cluttered engine bay I have seen on a third gen. Nice job. What are those covers on your strut bearings? Where did you get them?

Oh my, now that's nice!! I want to see more/better quality pics of that set-up if anybody has them.

wilyk9....those are 6061 billet covers that I made one day at work when I was bored

Tunedport335...that is a factory plenum that I machined down and then fabricated a new dist. cover. I can't run the wires under the headers....burn city!

I like the A/C delete plate you made for it. I'm guessing you completely got rid of the HVAC?

87CIZ,
Thanks for the compliment, the AC delete plate was made with a piece of aluminum then polished. Yea I completley got rid of the HVAC. The car has become a racecar and weekend cruiser so I only take it out on nice days anyway.
